Have you ever heard someone or even told yourself that you would actually keep a new year's resolution, but then it never worked out after a month or so? Many of us are extremely determined to succeed around this time every year, but we end up not succeeding when the year ends. Well there is really a explanation on why this keeps happening to you every year. There are many reasons as to why they don't work, but I'm going to talk about the main two.
1. You Didn't Have the Right Mindset
Having the right mindset is a crucial part of setting a new goal for the new year. If you are really serious about doing your new year's resolution (and actually feel successful come December), you really have to focus on your goal(s) throughout the whole year. For example, if you want to lose 10 pounds this year, you CANNOT start to get back into your old habits of eating junk food. This causes you to gain 10 more pounds instead of losing ten pounds initially. This is because your mindset wasn't really in the right place when you first decided to lose weight. Your mind really has to be mentally prepared for the hard work, obstacles, setbacks, and even the distractions. If your mind isn't prepared, then you will be looking at another year of disappointment.
2. Your Expectations of Your New Year's Resolution Are NOT Realistic
Many people these days are setting bizarre expectations for themselves with their new year's resolutions. They are saying things that can't physically be done. Making those kind of New Year's Resolution isn't too bad because it provides a challenge, but at times, it's just not realistic. If you want to make your expectations become real and you really want to see results happen for your resolution, then you should make your expectations ones that you can meet. Make sure that you give your resolutions enough challenging aspects so they can motivate you though!
When you make your new year's resolution in less of a week think of these two reasons and make your resolution actually happen. This will make your year better and make you a better person throughout the new year. Happy New Year!!!!!
